About 20 years ago I did an exploration of tequilas at HiTime in Costa Mesa. I got as far as 7 Leguas Reposado and stopped. It has been the only tequila I drink ever since. For my taste, it is perfection. It mixes really well too.
Big fan of ur videos. Another spot on review. For whatever reason i didn't have high hopes from this brand. But now the blanco is my go-to for margaritas cuz it holds up, and just tried the repo and añejo, and totally agreed that this is a really well made añejo. I'm yet to find any Fortaleza or Cascahuin to get in the northeast. But Tesoro, Ocho, Cazcanes & now 7 Leguas are staples. I've got G4 & Carrera blancos on the way from f&s to try 👍👊
Great vids! Whats your fav blanco, repo, and anejo? Any suggestions on other tequilas in this price range? Maybe some that can go toe to toe with 7 leguas?
Tequilas that can go toe to toe with siete leguas would be G4, Fortaleza, El Tesoro, Pasote and El Tequileño just to name a few. All of them are in the same price range. It's too hard for me to pick favorites. I love so many of them.. 😄👍
I tried the reposado that was on the shelf at my local grocery store and was very impressed with it's agave forward flavor. Yes, I also like El Tesoro and Tequila Ocho, but they seemed kind of laid back by comparison. I like the idea of blending between the 2 factories to get exactly the flavor they think is ideal. Any suggestions in this price range of a reposado you think I should not be missing out on ??? Thanks
Thanks for the quick response. I just came across your channel, my wife & I love tequila 🤪. I will subscribe because I like your info. You seem to have knowledge of tequila & the way you smell & taste its like I'm kinda tasting it too if that makes any since..lol. Very good show✌🏾
Thank you for replying. I have watched several. Many sound extraordinary. We are heading to Mexico this week and I was hoping to procure a few. We also recently opened a liquor store. In our area the only tequila that is moving are the Adictivo, Casa Mexico, Juarez and Milagro. (Of course there is a wait list for fortelaza). I’m beginning to educate myself more so that we can help our friends find this new to us segment of the alcohol industry. I truly appreciate your reviews because we know a little about whiskeys and beer.
Patron n Don Julio are popular cause of it's advertising n promotion but that don't make it a good or great tequila. 7 legues is still made Old school n old fashion way which is still distinct now at days but most importantly is a great tequila i only drink añejo 9out of 10 for sure..
I've tried the Siete Leguas Anejo and as somewhat of a beginner, I was really surprised at how much heat/burn it had. It was noticeably more than the Espanita Anejo (which I got based on your recommendation and is excellent). For that reason, I definitely wouldn't recommend it to anyone new to tequila as it won't be as enjoyable to them as some other options that are less than half the price. If you made a video about the top "smoothest" (I know you don't like that word) tequilas, it would be extremely helpful and in demand for beginners who are really pushed away by heat/burn.
Different people pervcieve heat and burn differently. You can find it to be very hot and another person can find it to be the easiest drinking. I recommend you spend some time watching the videos on here and trying the ones that I describe as easy to drink. This way you learn more about other brands as well and learn which ones to avoid and which ones you should seek. Knoledge is power! Salud Amigo. Enjoy the journey!
That's is not correct. A freelance distiller used Siete to make the tequila for patron.. The recipe was created by patron and made at Siete leguas. It was patrons recipe from the start.
@@TheTequilaHombre but patron doesn't taste like it used too older patron tasted better from what i have read eirher recipe change, agave maturity has changed or the process of it.
@@TheTequilaHombre and maybe that's why now is cheaper in Mexico. However, Siete Leguas has always been cheaper than Patron, but much less expensive. 1 liter of blanco less than 25 dollars, here INER Mexico

It is a good one! Thanks for watching.
Their blanco is one of my faves. It does pack heat. But I find that can also enhance the experience. Probably not an entry level tequila though.
Definitely not an entry level tequila. gotta appreciate the bite..

Amen on the life is to short. Got to enjoy every sip

Awesome review, i just bought añejo im waiting to taste it and compare it with blanco that i love
It's so good!
I agree with you completely! Love the anejo. Thanks for the recommendation! Great tequila!
Glad you agree.. Thanks for watching..
Thanks for the informative and honest review, Mark!
My pleasure!

Try El Luchador Reposado and Dos Angeles Caidos Reposado.
BTW, I loved the reposado, but like you said, the anejo is better, maybe my new favorite. $68 delivered to my door step, not bad
@@use2b19 yep! Thanks for watching..
How was the burn of the anejo compared to the repository. I'm looking for extra smooth no burn but nice eazy flavor.
No burn. Super good flavor.

@@leoperkins4478 thanks for the sub! Glad you enjoy the channel!
I wish they sold those mini bottles of Siete Leguas here in the States. I didn’t even know they existed.
Yep, From the airport in GDL.
Ive never seen the little bottles! Great review
Glad you liked the review. Grabbed them at the airport in GDL. Thanks for watching.
Thank you. Which 2 anejos would you recommend?
There are lots I recommend. Watch more of my videos..

Love the anejo. Love the story of their name..
Me too!
Trying to find out if this bottle of siete leguas repasado artisanal blend is special?
Nope.. Not special Just regular tequila

Tried them and I love the anejo the best but all are great sippers.
Yes. True. Thanks for watching!
I found out about 7 leagues in San Antonio from an elbow bending couple at a breakfast restaurant.
FTR, the Anejo is excellent.
Nice. The Anejo is my favorite from the line.
@@TheTequilaHombre - Mine too. It's actually one of my favorites overall, especially after sipping a little rye whiskey.
What repos do you prefer to this one?
New recommended Reposado video coming soon.
On the reposado I also taste a lot of pine nuts, very earthy. Very different
awesome! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it..
Best tequila been drinking for 16 years tasted 7 leguas this year wont drink any other tequila
Awesome. But please try others. Some really good stuff out there.
Hey hombre is Don Julio tequila a difuse tequila
They are buying diffused tequila to put into it.
@@TheTequilaHombre - Damned shame. It's one of the ones that got me into drinking tequila.
The reposado and anejo were great.
7 leguas was original patron they sold it to them. Would of love to see the rating on their xa.
That's is not correct. A freelance distiller used Siete to make the tequila for patron.. The recipe was created by patron and made at Siete leguas. It was patrons recipe from the start.
@@TheTequilaHombre but patron doesn't taste like it used too older patron tasted better from what i have read eirher recipe change, agave maturity has changed or the process of it.
Yes, it's not the same recipe anymore.. older recipe was much better .IMO..
@@TheTequilaHombre and maybe that's why now is cheaper in Mexico. However, Siete Leguas has always been cheaper than Patron, but much less expensive. 1 liter of blanco less than 25 dollars, here INER Mexico
@@TheTequilaHombrei don't think he was wrong.. siete has been around longer than patron so how did patron make siete?
